The recycling of electrical and electronic waste(e-waste) in developing countries has attracted much attention as a significant source brominated flame retardants (BFRs).Gaseous particle-bound BFRs were measured the atmosphere at e-waste rural sites southern China during 2007-2008. annual average concentrations air 3260 ± 3370 219 192 pg/m³ for polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) 546 547 165 144 non-PBDE sites,respectively. PBDEs had unusually high relative di- tribrominated congeners...

Atmospheric particulate matter samples were collected from May 2010 to April 2011 in a rural e-waste area and Guangzhou, South China, estimate the lifetime inhalation cancer risk exposure parent polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), high molecular weight PAHs (MW 302 PAHs), halogenated (HPAHs). Seasonal variations PAH concentrations profiles within between urban areas indicated different sources two areas. Benzo[b]fluoranthene, benzo[a]pyrene, dibenz[ah]anthracene, dibenzo[al]pyrene made...

Environmental exposure to organophosphate esters (OPEs) continues be a concern. Little is known about their bioaccumulation and trophodynamics, especially in tropical food webs. This study collected seawater fifteen types of organism from ecosystem, South China Sea, investigate the species-specific compositional, bioaccumulation, trophic transfer OPEs. The total concentrations 11 target OPEs (ng/g dw) organisms decreased with increase levels order: phytoplankton (922) > zooplankton (660)...

Legacy organic contaminants, such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), several currently used novel brominated retardants (NBFRs), organophosphate flame (OPFRs), Dechlorane Plus (DPs), were measured in the segmented hair hand wipes of e-waste dismantling workers dust from their workplace an recycling site South China to assess accumulation sources contaminants shaft. The median concentrations DPs, PBDEs, NBFRs, PCBs OPFRs samples 23.5, 154, 156,...

Contaminants pose a great threat to amphibian populations, but the bioaccumulation and distribution of contaminants in amphibians are still unclear. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) had median concentrations 468–3560 ng/g lipid weight (lw) 206–2720 lw muscle amphibians, respectively. BDE 209 was predominant PBDE congener, while CBs 118, 138, 153, 180 were main PCB congeners. The diet compositions estimated by quantitative fatty acid signature analysis...

Factors affecting the trophic transfer of microplastics (MPs) in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems remain to be clarified. Here, we determined abundances MPs multiple species, including insects, snails, crustaceans, fishes, snakes, birds, voles, from an abandoned e-waste recycling site. Approximately 80% were within size range 20-50 μm. In wildlife, MP per individual body weight found positively negatively correlated with weight, respectively. Herein, vertebrates, primarily exhibited more...

Hair is a promising, non-invasive, human biomonitoring matrix that can provide insight into retrospective and integral exposure to organic pollutants. In the present study, we measured concentrations of organophosphate flame retardants (PFRs) in hair serum samples from university students Guangzhou, China, compared PFR female segments using paired distal (5~10 cm root) proximal (0~5 samples. PFRs were not detected All except tricresyl phosphate (TMPP) tri-n-propyl (TPP) more than half all...

Biomagnification of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) is affected by physiochemical properties POPs and ecological factors wildlife. In this study, influences on species-specific biomagnification from aquatic terrestrial invertebrates to eight songbird species were investigated. The median concentrations polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in birds 175 13 200 ng/g lipid weight (lw) 62.7 3710 lw, respectively.

In order to further improve the ability of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) remote-sensing for quickly and accurately monitoring growth winter wheat under film mulching, this research used treatments ridge ridge–furrow full flat cropping mulching wheat. Based on fuzzy comprehensive evaluation (FCE) method, four agronomic parameters (leaf area index, aboveground biomass, plant height, leaf chlorophyll content) were calculate index (CGEI) wheat, 14 visible near-infrared spectral indices...

Abstract Hen muscle, eggs, and newborn chick tissues (muscle liver) were collected from an electronic waste recycling site in southern China. The authors examined the maternal transfer, potential metabolism, tissue distribution of several halogenated flame retardants (HFRs) during egg formation chicken embryo development. pollutant composition changes significantly hen muscle to eggs chicks. Higher‐halogenated chemicals, such as octa‐ deca‐polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) congeners,...
